Ariana Grande Brought the Most Important Women in Her Life On-Stage for Her "God Is a Woman" Performance

At the end of Ariana Grande's "God is a woman" performance at the VMAs, she brought the most important women in her life on stage to finish out the song with her. Her mom, grandma, and aunt made a surprise appearance, and it was, simply put, incredible.

The entire performance included approximately fifty female dancers in an ethereal, Renaissance-painting-esque act with a killer stage and a "Last Supper" vibe.

"God is a woman" is from Ariana's album "Sweetener," which came out three days ago. The music video for the song made jaws collectively drop earlier this summer due to a totally naked, body-painted Ariana.
